Alabama Senator Proposes 'Right-to-Work' Amendment

A state senator plans to introduce an amendment to Alabama's constitution giving workers in the state the right to a job regardless of whether they are a member of a union or not.

Alabama already has a "right-to-work" law. But Republican state Sen. Gerald Dial of Lineville said Tuesday his proposal would give voters a chance to decide if they want to make "right to work" a part of the Alabama Constitution.

Dial said he plans to introduce the proposed amendment in the session of the Alabama Legislature that begins Feb. 5.
